A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Business event photographers - client asking to relinquish copyright - is this normal? (alien.top)

We will sing an NDA and they also asked to relinquish copyright. I'm talking with the event planner but to my understanding the client is a multinational company. Is this normal? What would you do?

I find it normal that they ask for it. It’s fine but they gotta pay for the extended rights. Usually I ask how they are going to use the images and usually they realise they don’t need the copyright but just defined rights of use. Sometimes they purchase extended rights for a small select of photos. But don’t relinquish them for free.
